PHOENIX – The Interstate 8 Sentinel Rest Areas located about 30 miles west of Gila Bend have reopened after renovations to their restrooms, parking lots, water and wastewater systems, and more. 

The facilities, serving both directions of I-8 at milepost 83, closed in late 2021. Other improvements from the $7.6 million renovation include updated pavement markings and signage, along with improving access for individuals with disabilities.
